Starbucks is still making it possible to get your morning caffeine fix via drive-thru or delivery, but many are missing the thrill of waiting in line at the coffee shop during rush hour to pick up their daily cup. That could explain why Starbucks is the number one trending brand on resale sites like Poshmark right now.

While Starbucks spots are open for food and beverages without on-location seating, the company is still coming out with new merch like mugs and tumbler cups. Some of the most recent include a notepad pattern with a pencil straw tumbler, and color-changing cups in vibrant hues.

You can still ask at the ordering window if they have any of the cups in stock, but it's just not the same as perusing the displays and inevitably picking up something you don't really need. Now, you can browse the available options on resale sites like Poshmark, where individual buyers put items up that you can purchase.

Poshmark CEO Manish Chandra said in an interview with CNN Business that Starbucks-related products are seeing a huge uptick is sales on the site, likely because of "pandemic-triggered nostalgia" for the brand. "People have been making their coffee at home and pouring it into their favorite Starbucks cups, or taking their Starbucks mugs to their Zoom meetings or now, virtual coffee meets," he said.

Starbucks products have seen a more than a 100 percent increase in sales since the beginning of March with the most popular items being mugs and tumbler cups (both the new designs and the vintage ones). These items are so popular, in fact, that some sellers are selling them for prices much higher than they'd typically be found in stores. Tumbler cups usually go for around $15 at Starbucks, but Poshmark sellers are posting some designs for $50.

If you're a collector who hasn't been able to find them at your local Starbucks, check Poshmark for the designs you're looking for. Keep in mind that you might have to dish out a couple more bucks than usual.... all worth it for the perfect Insta pic though, right?
